Question
Benzene and toluene are separated in a multi-stage distillation column. The feed flow rate is 100 mol s-1 and the distillate flow rate is 60 mol s-1. The reflux ratio is 2.6 and the recovery of benzene is 90%. The pressure can be assumed to be 1.5 atm throughout the column. The feed is 50% vapour and 50% liquid on a molar basis in equilibrium at 1.5 atm. The mole fraction of benzene in the liquid phase of the feed is 0.5.
i) The mole fraction of benzene in the vapour entering the feed stage from the stage below is 0.67. The mole fraction of benzene in the liquid entering the feed stage from the stage above is 0.69. The vapour and liquid streams leaving the feed stage are in equilibrium at a temperature of 378.1 K. Calculate the mole fractions of benzene in the vapour and the liquid streams leaving the feed stage.
Summary
The question belongs to Chemical Engineering and it discusses about calculation of mole fraction of benzene in vapour and liquid streams leaving feed stage.

Thank you so much guys…!!! The final product was very precise, thorough and was far beyond what I expected for. It’s simply awesome and best part is that I got top grades in the assignment. I am very grateful to TheReliableTutor.com.
During my final year at my nursing school I was given an assignment on the steps to deal with the issue of ineffective airway clearance of post thyroidectomy patients. Obviously, I did not have much idea but when I approached the endocrine assignment expert here at HwA she guided me with the nursing interventions along with medical rationales which again helped me to gain good grades.
I must confess that I was horribly bad in logic circuit designs. I just messed up the symbols and eventually my grades hampered. But whilst browsing the net I landed on HwA and ever since I started taking their help, I never had to look back. The experience hand been fantastic and I recommend all my friends to come and take help from this website.
I was badly stuck with an argumentative essay writing assignment when I started searching for help on the net. I never thought that I will get any sort of specialized help for the Australian universities and when HwA promised to deliver that, I thought why not? Then I chatted with the expert and I got to know that she was also from the same university as I am in. It was kind of cool as she knew my syllabus and helped me out by writing and excellent essays which helped me get great grades.
Finance had me completely lost and I had no idea how I was to do research for the fixed income derivatives assignment. I needed to include examples and references and I had frankly no idea how I was going to do any of it. Thanks to the online finance assignment help expert at HwA I was able to get the assignment ready with all the necessary examples and get the top grades.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
